Trump posted the following message on Truth Social:

@realDonaldTrump

Crime in Washington, D.C., is totally out of control. Local “youths” and gang members, some only 14, 15, and 16-years-old, are randomly attacking, mugging, maiming, and shooting innocent Citizens, at the same time knowing that they will be almost immediately released. They are not afraid of Law Enforcement because they know nothing ever happens to them, but it’s going to happen now! The Law in D.C. must be changed to prosecute these “minors” as adults, and lock them up for a long time, starting at age 14. The most recent victim was beaten mercilessly by local thugs. Washington, D.C., must be safe, clean, and beautiful for all Americans and, importantly, for the World to see. If D.C. doesn’t get its act together, and quickly, we will have no choice but to take Federal control of the City, and run this City how it should be run, and put criminals on notice that they’re not going to get away with it anymore. Perhaps it should have been done a long time ago, then this incredible young man, and so many others, would not have had to go through the horrors of Violent Crime. If this continues, I am going to exert my powers, and FEDERALIZE this City. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

This suggests that not only will anyone that doesn't see (and agree) with Trump "or wants to complain" about his way of thinking, should be put in Jail, including minors.

your lie doesn't equate to what was said, he clearly stated those committing crimes, and violence should be locked up.
 

Hey, UNLUCKY DUCKY-----------> You have a 14, 15, or 16 year old?

Well, how about we hold the PARENTS responsible, and throw them into the system? I like that idea, don't you!
 
Commit adult crimes do adult time.... don't act like these kids are stupid because they are not... they know they can get away with murder and they will also know when they can't and then maybe they will think twice....

no, this proves you are a moron, how do you come up with your idea that Trump is going to jail 14 year olds that disagree with Trump

join the democrat party of stupidity. A shame the entire voting population dont have a voice, to hear how real stupid democrats are.

You really don't understand that teens are not adults and therefore should not be prosecuted as adults as they legally are not supposed to understand what violence and crime means.

AI Overview

The question of whether to jail teens who commit violent acts is complex. While some argue for holding them accountable with incarceration, others emphasize the developmental differences between teens and adults, and the potential for rehabilitation within the juvenile justice system. Research suggests that incarceration can be detrimental to young people, potentially increasing the likelihood of future criminal behavior.

Do you believe that "creating" a bigger criminal in the future by jailing him as a teen, is going to make our country better?
 
Many Adult gang leaders entice minors to commit their murders because if caught, they know the punishment is significantly less than if they did it themselves.
Yes, but they also realize that teens can be more easily influenced than adults. Those Adult gang leaders should suffer bigger consequences but not the influenced teens.

In fact, let me ask you a question, "if Trump is found guilty of abusing his power and doing something violent and illegal, and gets to suffer the consequences of it, should the Trump supporters get the same fate for following him and doing as told?

When a 14 year old assaults your wife, let's hear how you want the poor little "minor" protected then.

This is ignorant nonsense. Keep grasping.

Last I heard committing a crime at 14, 15 or 16 does not mean freedom of consequences for the crime.
No, it doesn't but it doesn't mean "jail". Usually what is done is "rehabilitation within the Juvenile Justice system". Totally different to what Trump is suggesting.
 

Keep in mind that Luckyone also believes 6 year olds are able to decide what gender they want to be.

Idiotic. Of course. Not sure what you mean by "supporters" though. There a 77 million Trump supporters and except for an odd dozen, they are in no position to do anything but vote.
